Excellent Driveway Repair by Pave Star…read more About six years ago, I had a company do my driveway, but unfortunately, they now only handle commercial projects. Over time, a strange issue developed--a small hole appeared in the middle of the driveway and expanded into a 4-inch-long tunnel. After consulting several people, the consensus was that it might have been caused by a collapsed chipmunk tunnel beneath the surface. As the hole grew and became a safety concern, I contacted multiple companies for quotes. I ultimately chose Pave Star because they seemed the most knowledgeable and genuinely committed to customer satisfaction--and I'm thrilled with the results! The team cut out a larger rectangular section around the affected area and repaired it meticulously. While any driveway patch will always be somewhat noticeable, their work is exceptional. The rectangle is perfectly straight, the patch is level with the rest of the driveway, and they took great care in tamping down the filler materials to ensure durability. The cost was $600, and I feel it was absolutely worth it. The rest of my driveway is still in pristine condition, and Pave Star's repair has left it safe and looking great. Thank you, Pave Star, for your professionalism and high-quality work! -- Lynda Minarzick

He then took a little longer to complete the job to ensure that it was done correctly and to my liking. I'm very happy with his meticulous and detail-oriented work; plan to employ him on additional projects - a 200 old brick house will provide many such projects. Best details: along with refurbishing the old wrought iron railings so they look sharp, he applied an aggregate coating that was a good match to the old stair color, plus several layers of epoxy to stabilize the stairs and make them winter-safe.

Let me start by saying: When I found out that I would need to replace the old, rotten hardwoods throughout half of my house, the task seemed insurmountable. Not only did I need to rip out those old floors, but there was seventy five year old mastic attached to the concrete prohibiting me from pouring the concrete I wanted onto my floors. I came to Walley Masonry for help, to see if there was anything we could do. Tyshawn, without batting an eye, said he could get it done. From a personal standpoint, Tyshawn is an upstanding individual. He respected me and my wishes for the project, and treated the project as if it was his own home he was working on. Not only that, but as all things are in construction, there were several hurdles in our way when removing the mastic, as it was extremely stubborn. Even with remedy after remedy not working, Tyshawn never gave up on making sure the job was done correctly. From a business perspective, Tyshawn is hardworking, committed, and dedicated to the project he is working on. He put in long hours, working well into the night, to get the project done. Whether it be from staying late stripping the mastic off the concrete, pouring the concrete, or making sure to take the extra time to pay fine attention to the details that otherwise may have been missed, Tyshawn made sure that the job was not only done, but that it was done right. You will see in the photos the complete night and day difference between what I started with, and what Tyshawn helped me create. I appreciate him, and would fully support and endorse hiring him for whatever masonry needs you may have!
